I also think this is a 'No".
I see additional issues doing this automatically as I tent to touch up books as the arrive, so replacing a Touched book would be problematic.
I FIRST look at the 'update' to determine IF it needs to be done.
What I have discovered is MANY of these books, simply update the ALSO BY list

Another thing, I discovered: There is no obvious indication WITHIN the book of a revision (version)

When I DO choose to update. I process the new version just as I normally do, BUT I also make a Tag: rev <on date> (since there is no release info)
